Fatal crash on SW highway

UPDATE: A woman has died and a man has been injured in a four-car crash on South Western Highway earlier this morning.

The woman died at the scene but the man, who sustained chest injuries, was airlifted to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.

It is believed the man was trapped in the car for some time before Armadale and Rockingham Fire and Emergency crews freed him from the wreckage.

The crash occurred near Feast Road in Jarrahdale about 8.30am.

South West Highway, which has been closed since the crash, has now been reopened.
